Will the Corvette take a back seat to another Car at the Indy 500 this year? Past 500 winners Johnny Rutherford, Al Unser Jr., and Eddie Cheever Jr. will help the Indianapolis Motor Speedway unveil the 2009 car at 4:00 PM today. The Chevrolet Corvette has led the starting field every year since 2004. Go to indystar.com to find out which car was picked.

Lately the pace cars have been a bit overdone for my taste, but it will be very interesting. My wife really likes the paint scheme on the Dale Earnhardt Jr Camaro; orange/white & black, but clean. We'll see.

I like it, but it would have been nice to see a nice clean White Camaro with Hugger Orange Stripes and inferno orange interior. I agree, the pace cars have been to cluttered up lately. Look at the 69 pace car, that car still looks fantastic, and classic! The graphics package is what seems to date cars.

i'm glad the camaro is the pacer, and i also know the daytona cars have usually been more 'out-there' with their paint jobs, but i'm really disappointed in the look of this car. :( the daytona car looked much better to me
